Standing Up
On and on
I don't know what the Ethiopians received.
Okay. I thought you were commenting on the Septuagent.
So, the Septuagent contained 3/4 Macc? And all the rest EO has? Weren't there a number of controversies over the centuriest about it? What makes you think your version today is the same as the one 2000 years ago?
I'm not sure which one we use.
Oops. Never mind the questions. But for someone who thinks they use the Sep, it'd be good to know which one.
But this brings up an interesting point on the NT.
The version the EO use is the same we received.
What? I thought you just said you don't know. Okay, please answer the questions.
Many modern translations have used more recently discovered Alexandrian texts found in trash dumps. These texts have many misspellings and different verb tenses in some verses (which can change the meaning considerably). Why texts apparently rejected due to scribal error would be considered "superior" seems odd.
Believe that refers to the septuagent, not the masoretic text. Not sure.
